Debank - Delilah

Sorry, for not writing any thing on my blog since late... No silly excuses to defend, why I did not post anything here... Just SORRY!!


So, the much awaited Debank-Delilah story in brief is here:


Most of you may be aware and have a rough idea of the novel, but still I would reintroduce you to the lead characters of the novel as the story would progress... while framing the story I scribbled 19 register pages… still I tried to cut short and brief it as far as possible...


This post would basically focus on rough ideologies of Debank & Delilah.

In the novel lead characters are Debank & Delilah and the story starts with present and switches to flashback... from their early lives!! Let me tell you, that these two individuals, are extraordinary in true sense and so is their story. They are above normal (Don’t land in fantasies, by above normal never means they have some sort of supernatural powers or anything :P). It’s just that Debank thinks in a way , as no normal guy in his sound mind would think, and Delilah the protagonist is though a girl but total antonym, to typical girl species [as she is sensible and above all has got brains ;) ]


So let me not aberrate, and come straight to the story. It’s in fast frwd mode just to cut short and make brief and worth reading (as few f u may not be addicted to reading long contents ;) )


Debank, an innocent, shy guy in his early life can say, had a mamma’s boy image and this shy guy falls for a girl at the premature age of just 13!! Though premature, but Debank was mature enough to atleast acknowledge that the stage was immature and his bent for Delilah could be mere teenage distraction! There he comes across a situation, when Debank & Delilah don’t communicate for about two and a half years, and Debank thought this would definitely let the distraction for Delilah wiped off. But he failed. Yes, you guessed that right, it wasn’t distraction!!


I guess he had some hormonal disorder too ;) as he was not attracted to the gals whom guys would in their normal course would just find irresistible to stalk. The serenity and simplicity of a lass would appeal him more than oomph of the so called plastics!!


Then, Debank starts losing hope to even speak to Delilah, but fate had a lot in store for the lad!! Something miraculous happens, literally incredible to him, he earns an opportunity to study in the capital city Delhi (all bout CA and details….. in novel or later post).He with all his heart would have kissed the hands of Larry page and Sergey Brin (Google guys who actually founded the co.), as it was Google that brought Debank and Delilah again in communication phase, and it was almost two and a half years later that they both communicate. She was in different city and Google aided in reducing the miles to seconds!! (Long distance compensated by instant messaging!).


Debank was still bent for her, just for her and he was now pretty much sure that it was not normal to be bent for someone for 6 yrs continuously and moreover which includes a communication gap of 2 ½ yrs. Debank composes a poem to radiate a hint of his bent for a gal in his early life. And as expected, none of his friends could expect the shy guy to fall for someone and each one enquired as if Debank was accused of a crime having fallen for someone, as if it was something not meant for him.

And as each one enquired, Delilah was no exception, she too enquired and everybody was eager to know who the poem gal was, finally Debank discloses the poem gal’s name, silently. Silently, as he discloses the name just to the poem gal, Delilah. To which he receives no weird reply and everything was as normal as ever! But then, Debank finds it high time (which actually must have been his lowest time) to reveal his feelings for Delilah to her, and while doing this he was filled with a sense of déjà vu regarding the consequence, as expected he met with unfavorable response. This was a faux pas of his life. But even though he was aware of the consequence at prima facie still he wanted to shed off the load that he was carrying since 6yrs and it filled him with a mixture of feelings, both confusing, and relaxed. Confused as he didn't know what was he supposed to do next to have relations normal, and feared the loss of friend, and was relaxed on account of his magnanimous deed!


They however continued to be friends, but Debank found himself a li’l embarrassed of what he had done, a sense of guilty types. But as said she was extraordinary and antonym to a typical gal, Delilah took the lead and was great in handling the situation and everything was normal as ever.


Then there is a short story of Delilah which is the turning point and almost topples the whole story. Delilah there falls for a guy and they two get committed but there relation could last only for 7 months and it was that Debank and Delilah did share only normal conversation nothing too personal and intimate till now, but out of blue, one day Delilah breaks the ice, and it was the day she broke up with the guy, She was sad and on Debank’s earnest nudging she spills all, and it was a bit strange that it was just a lot Debank could know in a single conversation. Debank just comes to know that Delilah was committed someday, and immediately followed by the news of break up with the guy and all the stuff about when,, how, why etc (details .. in novel or later blog post).


This conversation was like a revolution in their relation, in next 20 days they did share conversation that would amount a lot more that they did even share in their 20 years of their life. They opened themselves and did spoke their heart out! Debank again did thank to Larry page and Sergey Brin!


Likewise they continue to share themselves and now share a better friendly relation than ever! Suddenly one day, there is a bolt from blue, Delilah declares to Debank that she was undergoing some sort of feeling for him, and begun liking him, but was scared of commitment!! This was totally incredible for Debank. He didn't know how could this happen…


Debank cared for her and undoubtedly loved her, but his love was unconditional. He had no complaints against her, no expectations from her! Delilah felt that commitment level of Debank was high, meaning of which Debank couldn't figure out, and she felt that Debank would expect the same from her. But, Debank wasn't normal guy, he didn't think as would a normal guy would think in this case! He did not expect the same from her. He had a completely different picture, a picture that would appear strange, weird and abnormal, but yes, so was he!!


She was scared of Debank’s commitment level (which still have to figure what does this phrase “commitment level” means) She liked Debank, but said she wouldn't be able to give much in relation and that would hurt Debank, and further adds that She is right as she knows more about relations than Debank. Debank feels, hope she had more info of what Debank thought and what picture had he framed.


As he did never expect a typical commitment as most of the couples would plunge into!! This story was about extra ordinary individuals, and their story could in no way could be normal !!


Next post would be Idea of typical ideology of commitment and Debank’s ideology of commitment.


Keep Reading..
